jumping fun

Today we needed to go do some errands. I'll admit I was a little nervous taking all 4 kids, especially since Jeremiah has been on his new schedule (he slept a LOT in his car seat though, and he's still napping in it!!). The kids were absolutely excellent though. I was afraid it was just going to be a rough day because I had to deal with a lot of warranty stuff.

-First we went to Camera Gallery to take my lens to have it returned to Nikon to fix - yeah for the 5 year warranty! I should have it back in a month.
-Then to the mall to see if they would repair my earring - thank goodness for that warranty!!! It would have cost $130 to have it fixed. I should have it no later then July 3rd!
-Found Jeremiah an adorable baseball hat that will look great with his swimsuit!
-Then the kids got a special treat - they got to jump on the mall trampoline. Karissa and Makayla went first - they bounced super high and did back flips! I was so impressed!!! Josiah waited patiently while they jumped first. I was shocked - he was totally okay with waiting. The lady asked if I wanted to jump - I told her no thanks. It was a treat for the kids, but I wasn't going to spend the money... she said I could jump for free - I was still nervous, but I thought why not? So Josiah and I jumped together! It was a lot of fun too. I did 3 back flips myself! We had quite an audience, but I just ignored them and had fun with (another correction by Makayla, haha... left out with) my kids! When we were done, the lady sling shotted Josiah - it scared me! I wish I had a video of - his face was total fear for a second and then just told elation! He loved it! For those of you wondering - we were gated in so I could just push the stroller in there with us.
-Then Camera Gallery called to say it was only a 1 year warranty and they were sorry and I should just buy a new lens :(. I checked the papers and it really was a 5 year, so we went back over and he made copies and everything is good again!
-Then we went to WM to return the pool vacuum that didn't work. They didn't have another one though.
-Then we got gas, ate lunch at Sonic (another attempt at a correction, but I really did spell gas right!) including Jeremiah.
-Then it was off to get the concert tickets and cds!
The kids were so good the entire time! What a day... and it's not even over!

I told Shantyl we had to go to the 55th floor to pick up the tickets and she didn't believe me! She didn't think there was a building that big! Here's a picture for proof! It was hard to get the top of the building and the cars all the in the same frame from where we parked! My ears actually popped going up the elevator. Once the people that worked at the radio station were late for work - the elevators weren't working and they had to take the stairs!!! They said they had to stop and take breaks!

Makayla took a few pictures of Josiah and I jumping...


We couldn't take many b/c the 'mall cop' said we weren't really supposed to. There's Makayla bouncing high!

Karissa going high! Wish I could have gotten pictures of their flips!







Jeremiah was so good just sitting in his car seat.



Josiah waiting patiently...



So Makayla's been proofreading my writing and I had her type the title while she was doing the pictures - I clicked publish and then I noticed she misspelled jumping! haha.

It looks like they had a fun time jumping! That's funny that Makayla is proof reading for you, maybe I should send her my paper. I'm so glad the warranty worked out on both your earrings and the lens! I'm sure you will be thrilled to get both back. That building is amazing! I have never actually been in one that tall, and couldn't imagine one in Tulsa for some reason. Very neat.
